The most commonly repeated story behind the post-Thanksgiving shopping-related Black Friday tradition links it to retailers. As the story goes, after an entire year of operating at a loss (“in the red”) stores would supposedly earn a profit (“went into the black”) on the day after Thanksgiving, because holiday shoppers blew so much money on discounted merchandise. Though it’s true that retail companies used to record losses in red and profits in black when doing their accounting, this version of Black Friday’s origin is the officially sanctioned—but inaccurate—story behind the tradition.

The antonym of this word is A. a follower.
When you say dissident meaning a person who loves to oppose everytime.
A provider, a protester and a contender are all synonyms of this word. A follower thus is the antonym of it because a follower never opposes. It always follows.
